Brennan-LSU

Purdy-FSU

Slovis-USC

Ewers-Ohio State

Rattler-Oklahoma

Who would you rather have, Ewers or Manning?  I guess you grab the first one that says yes because there's no guarantees on either?

But Manning would have a year to change his mind and say no. You take the first one who will come.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

But DKR never won less than 10 games either at Mississippi State  or Washington. 

Incorrect. DKR was 5-5 during his one season at Washington.

His two years at Miss State were both 6-4.

 

[Eastexhorn]

Texas was 1-9 over all and 0-6 in conference theyearbefore his arival.

Must have one heck of a softmore class.

 Ewers, but yes grab what you can. Not sold on Manning. He looks decent, but a  private school league is a lower level of competition than Texas 6A.

another 5 star Fong'd to aggie...

They are going to sign more 5 stars this class then we have on our entire roster...

We have become aggy during the Mack years and they have become us... Amazing.

Maybe they're not trying to change the world with woke culture. Just playing football is enough for them.

I haven’t seen Sark or any player talk about any type of social injustice this season. So yeah maybe it has nothing to do with your talking point that recruits could care shit about. Maybe it has to do with they are selling they beat Alabama this year and are doing well in the SEC, while we are getting killed in the Big 12. They are selling they are closer to winning a CFP championship than we are. I get it, you want to believe the players care about the things you do. Somehow you think a 17-18 year old, usually African American, kid thinks like a person who is likely 45-50 and white. Guess what, shocker, they don’t. You want to use a player being fong’d to support you talking point that UT Football is too woke. It’s BS. Guarantee if the team is 8-1 right now and talking about every social wrong in the world, they still have a top class. These kids don’t care about that stuff. They care about winning & getting to the NFL. Hell they come to the most liberal city in Texas. You think they would do that if they didn’t want to be around “woke cultural”. Do better, think more. Come up with a better way to frame your talking point. And take it to the politics thread. This is for recruiting and “woke” topics have nothing to do with recruiting.

Blair Angulo, who covers the mountain region for 247, has crystal-balled DE/LB Lander Barton of Salt Lake City, UT to Utah.

Texas was looking good there a few weeks ago.

I agree for the most part, but there is a ceiling to what aggy can legitimately sell.

They will not win the Southeast Conference. They will not win the west division of the Southeast Conference. Those two things are set in stone and every recruit they will ever talk to knows it.

This is a down year for Bama and they will still win the west.

WR Evan Stewart and S Jacoby Mathews are starting to get A&M predictions.

[Sirhornsalot]

Really don't know how to read these.  Are they directly clapping at Texas cleaning house by getting rid....sorry, with Moore going into the portal? Is that the sentiment in this?  Or is this just HS kids doing HS things?

Unfortunately, no. Moore was Stewart's host during his official visit at Texas. They became friends during that time and have conversed ever since.

My thought is that Stewart's tweet may have been directed at Bo Davis' tirade on the bus.

You don't clap when a kid leaves the sure thing and enters the unknown, potentially ending his career. But you do clap if you approve of what someone says with much passion. Maybe that's just me.

I will likely make a portal thread to keep up with what will surely be a busy off-season for Texas.

IT wrote yesterday they expect "massive" movement after the season, and then again after spring ball.

They sense UT will lose or two or three quality players, but overall they should be "big winners" in the portal adding around 10 guys and at least three of those being OL.

 

[TFloss32]

WR Matthew Golden of Klein Cain informed IT he may not make the Kansas game because of ride issues.

JUCO LB Xavier Benson, originally of Texarkana Pleasant Grove, has been in contact with Texas, according to IT.

Oklahoma State offered today, and they said the coaches need to pick it up here if they're truly interested.

Whatever aggy is selling, they are doing a damn good job with this year's recruiting class. 

They are right there with the big boys when it comes to Top 100 players currently committed. 

Bama 9, Georgia 8, tOSU 7, and aggie 7.

When you look at a lot of the higher rated players in the portal, you often see Kyle Flood's and Jeff Banks' names as the lead recruiters for Bama. Hopefully those prior relationships and interactions help, coupled with immediate playing time opportunities.

Aggie is not selling they are buying now legal.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Okay, take with a grain of salt. Word is Stewart is already committed to aggy. Additionally, he's now in an alternative school apparently due to behavior. The rift with the HS coaches was over failed drug tests.
